K-9 on Android, Thunderbird on desktop. I love both of them, but K-9 has some weird problem that background sync appear to be not working.

Please don’t hate me, but I use the Gmail app on Android since it works well enough.

On my desktop though I use Thunderbird, and have for about as long as I can remember.

Pixel

carnha ,

Agree - I jumped from a OnePlus 5T to a Pixel 5a 2 years ago and have no regrets. It really depends on what you’re modding for, but I found that on Pixel not having (as much) bloatware, getting the latest Android updates, having real Google Camera support instead of chasing the best mod, and using Wavelet instead of Viper4Android took care of most of my rooting needs. Instead, with the unlockable bootloader I’ve been able to explore custom OSes like GrapheneOS which has been really great!

SuperSpruce , in How many apps are installed on your phone other than system apps? List your top ten daily used apps.

I have 240 total apps on my phone, so probably about 210 non system apps.

For apps I use the most currently, here is my guess:

  1. Firefox
  2. Jerboa to kill time. This used to be Reddit.
  3. Music Speed Changer: An app to playback local audio with a different speed and pitch with minimal distortion. This is my primary music player.
  4. FX file manager. I use it to look at photos and local videos.
  5. An app to get directions from point A to point B using public transit in my city.
  6. GSMArena: An app for phone news and reviews. One of the rare cases where the app is actually naturally better than the mobile website.
  7. Google maps. I want to degoogle but I literally use this app for work.
  8. Messages. For text messages.
  9. Camera. Interesting that it’s this far down.
  10. NewPipe for background playback of music found only on YouTube. It barely edges out the official YT app to get on this list, as the amount of ads on mobile YT is too much (especially the homepage, ugh) unless I’m watching a creator that I know deserves the ad revenue.
Bitswap ,

Why do you need the ability to play music back with different speed or pitch? What do you use it for?

SuperSpruce ,

Listening to music in a different key or pitch can make it sound quite different, almost like you haven’t heard it before. I mostly use it for fun.

Web portals. I use web portals.

The Xiaomi Poco F5 Pro, its bootloader can be unlocked and it’s fairly powerful. I am sure a good rooting and modding community will come out of it.

However, the unlocking process can take a couple weeks which is not great, also MIUI by default sucks.

The Pixel line is always pretty good for custom roms and stuff

LessQuit ,

I think MIUI is pretty decent, what dont you like about it?

sin_free_for_00_days ,

It’s history, if nothing else, makes it incredibly unattractive.

Outlook mobile seems to be the only one to give mark as read function on the galaxy watch. That's the only reason I use it.

Spark for Android

SuperSpruce , in What's the 3 apps that you can't live without?
  1. Bitwarden (for passwords)
  2. FX file manager (fast and powerful file manager)
  3. Music speed changer (uses an advanced algorithm to change the pitch and speed of locally stored audio with minimal distortion)

#2 and #3 are Android only. This is a huge reason why I stay on Android.

ChickenAndRice ,

Whoa #1 isn’t on iPhone? Lmao that sucks

furikuri ,

Yup, all browsers on iOS are restricted to WebKit and might as well be Safari-lite

TomFrost , in What's your email client of choice?

For Gmail users on Mac desktop, I really can’t recommend Minestream enough, if a paid app isn’t a dealbreaker. It’s designed by ex-Applers and implements gmail’s API completely— even to the point of the signature editor and vacation auto responder and having a mode that only shows unread messages and starred messages in your inbox (which is kind of a badass way to stay on top of busy mailboxes).

nottheengineer , in One thing that has made me reluctant to purchase apps is finding some of them delisted in my own account down the road

Many years ago, delisted apps used to stay on your IOS device but if you ever uninstalled them, they'd be gone for good. No idea if that's still the case.

Yes this is still the case, I can still download Alien Blue for instance. I tried using it for fun 2 weeks ago and it was working absolutely fine still. Now it probably finally broke though, but I can still download the app from my purchased apps list.

I use thunderbird cause I saw the new logo and thought it was cool.
